When a Child Sees Through Wall Street's Emperor's New Clothes
What if your eight-year-old could manage money better than most financial professionals? That sounds absurd-until you realize that a child's fresh perspective cuts through decades of industry mythology. When Kevin, a second-grader, learned that investment "helpers" take 2% of returns each year, his response was immediate: "That's like the claw game at the arcade-it's rigged so you can't win." This simple observation reveals what millions of adults miss: the financial industry profits magnificently from complexity, while simplicity consistently wins. The math is embarrassingly straightforward-10% minus 2% in fees equals 8%, while 10% minus 0.2% in index fund costs equals 9.8%. Over forty years, that difference nearly doubles your wealth. Yet we resist this arithmetic, preferring to believe our chosen expert is exceptional, that we've somehow discovered the rare manager who beats the odds.
